Vram has jumped unexpectedly in recent games—from 2 GB to 6 GB in Red Dead Redemption 2 and 8 GB in Resident Evil Village. Your PC feels sluggish lately, especially after two days of strange performance. A full scan came up clean, but RAM usage stays high even when running Opera (which is fine) and CPU spikes only during gameplay. You’re hoping VRAM returns to its original 2 GB. Your setup includes an Athlon 3000g with 16 GB RAM, Corsair LPX, MSI A320M, and a 1TB NVMe drive.

it seems impossible given your IGpu specs—either 1 or 2GB dedicated storage. This likely points to an issue with the software measuring it. From what I see, it probably shouldn’t exceed 2GB.

Sure, you can allocate more space. I remember having 4GB dedicated for my 2200G, which is definitely adjustable in the BIOS. That’s a good point—just because it might not seem like it right now doesn’t mean it won’t slow down over time. I currently use it as external storage, and it’s working fine. It’s safe to say it won’t crash, but it could become sluggish eventually.
